#1. After reading the first chapter I realized how drastically the film industry has changed since it's beginnings. You see how just after a couple of decades the films go from single frame clips, to 30 minute movies with color and sound. Learning about how people managed to watch these movies, before sound, and fully understand them shows how much effort the creator of the film put into the movie. Even though these films were only 5 minutes they still conveyed a deep message with them. I think that is the coolest thing I've learned so far.
#2. I think movies can be a social benefit because of the strong situations the can display. Like during World War 2 how they used film to show people over in Europe fighting to get others to join the fight. They also have been used in anti-bullying campaigns and have even showed a difference.
I agree how films have come a long way from silent and black and white. And how they came to be colored and sound. Also how most people watch them to. Like on mobile devices and streaming right at home.
ReplyDeleteI can perfectly see where your coming from on the social benefits part, but you have to realize that there are those dangers out there. Where people try to turn Hollywood into reality and it doesn't always work like that.
ReplyDeleteAsan art student I agree with your last sentences on the first answer. With smaller and more detailed subjects in a film you could still be able to get any point
